Guest Editor’s comments Dear All, it is really a pleasure for me and a privilege to contribute to this monthly report. Those that want to make use of it will certainly be able to find in it an amount of useful information.
Many of you may not know that, since December 2014, my duty station is Afghanistan where I am leading a FAO project funded by the Government of Japan, with FMD being one of the main components. Despite the many challenges, I feel in a way the privilege of experiencing what FMD may mean in a context where subsistence agriculture still plays an important role for the livelihood of the rural people.
I have often heard statements like: “FMD is not so important in developing countries, it is not a fatal disease, animals can easily recover, and it does not affect humans”. Those arguments, some of them certainly true, may tend to undermine the importance of FMD especially in a context where there could be a plethora of competing animal health issues.
On the other hand (and I would add obviously) countries officially free from FMD pose a lot of attention to the trade aspects and the possible negative consequences should FMD enter into their national territories.
I think that both arguments have their intrinsic validity but in a way it does not seem to me that those are looking at “the patient”.
Recently, I came to know the story of a farmer (let’s call him Khalid for convenience and hopefully without generating any gender issue!!) with two milking cows that became affected with FMD that stopped them from producing milk, an important nutritional element for his family (families in Afghanistan may mean a broad and rather numerous group of relatives sharing the same house).
No doubt that for Khalid FMD was a shock.
It is first interesting, to see how the delivery of animal health care services has evolved in a country like Afghanistan, before going back to Khalid. The privatization of the veterinary services has led to identify the private sector as the provider of clinical services but also act as service providers for activities (like vaccination) which traditionally were carried out by the public sector.
On the other hand, the public sector responsibilities have shifted towards a deeper engagement into regulatory activities (among which monitoring and evaluation).
We can now go back to Khalid and see that this division of responsibilities has led the private sector to provide services to Khalid (for example vaccination against FMD) and the public sector enabling Khalid (and all other farmers) to have the right to access to vaccines that possess certain characteristics (in terms of quality, efficacy, safety, matching, etc..) and which are effectively beneficial for the farmers.
I am not entering now into the dispute of who should pay for the vaccination but would like to highlight that there is still a significant amount of work to be done in improving the delivery of good quality animal health care services and the way these are monitored and measured.
The PCP-FMD regional roadmaps (especially the West Eurasia one which I am more familiar with) have provided a good opportunity to clearly see that despite several countries may apply preventive measures, such as vaccination, this has not translated into those countries being able to progress along the pathway. The main reason is most probably the lack of a system enabling to show the results of those on-going efforts. This is one of the areas where a significant component of the developmental efforts, in my opinion, need to be addressed.
In this regard, the production of a monthly report such as this is among those tools that can certainly assist in facilitating Khalid (and the many millions of Khalids around the world) to access to good quality animal healthcare delivery services.
With this I would like to wish all the best, to all those engaged in controlling this challenging disease. Warm regards

III. DETAILED POOL ANALYSIS
A. POOL 1 – SOUTHEAST ASIA/CENTRAL ASIA/EAST ASIA Cambodia 1 Two field isolates A/CAM/2 and 5/2015, both genotyped as A/ASIA/Sea-97, were included in the VMSD test carried out by the WRLFMD, and the vaccine strains identified as likely to confer protection for these strains were A Iran 2005 and A MAY 97 but not A/TUR/20/2016 and A22 IRQ. Another field isolate from the same country O/CAM/3/2015, genotyped as O/SEA PanAsia was also subjected to the VMSD test and O3039, O Skr VV and O Tur 5/09, but not O Manisa, represented vaccine strains as likely to confer protection against this isolate. China (People's Rep. of) 2 A FMD outbreak occurred on the 4th of May 2016 involving a cattle farm in the Qiannan State, of Guizhou, China (People's Rep. of). This event was the last of a series of FMD episodes, which began in November 2014. The outbreak was confirmed as due to FMDV serotype O on the 10th of May 2016 by the Lanzhou Veterinary Research Institute (National and OIE Reference Laboratory) using reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and virus isolation. Summary of animals involved are presented in Table 2 and location of outbreak in Map 2. Source of the outbreak is unknown or inconclusive while control measures adopted are movement control inside the country, screening, disinfection, stamping out, zoning. Vaccination or treatment was not administered to affected animals. Table 2: summary of the animals involved in the FMD outbreak that occurred during in May 2016 in the Qiannan State, of Guizhou, China (People's Rep. of).

Map 2: Location of the FMD outbreak in Qiannan State, of Guizhou, China (People's Rep. of).
Laos 1 For the field isolate O/LAO/3/2015, genotyped as O/ME-SA/Ind-2001d, the three vaccine strains likely to confer protection according to the results of the VMSD test carried out by the WRLFMD were O 3039, O Skr VV and O Tur 5/09 but not O Manisa. Samples collected in Thailand from buffaloes during March 2016 and forwarded by the Regional Reference Laboratory for FMD were negative for infectious FDMV by the WRLFMD even if the viral genome was detected in all of them. Russian Federation 3 The ARRIAH, Russia genotyped the FMDV serotypes detected in samples collected in Central Asia during April 2016 respectively as A/ASIA/Iran – 05HER-10 and O/ME-SA/PanAsia2. The same laboratory also carried out post vaccination seromonitoring by screening 3,969 sera. Studies on the immunobiological properties of FMDV serotypes A and O are ongoing. The laboratory continues to provide materials to the Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation and advice to the Veterinary Services of the Russian Federation Subjects. Thailand 1 Twelve and five samples all collected from cattle in Thailand during various FMD episodes that occurred between November 2015 and March 2016 were respectively genotyped by the WRLFMD as A/ASIA/Sea-97 and O/SEA/Mya-98. A summary of the characteristics of the samples genotyped is reported in Table 3. Location of sampling is represented in Map 3. As can be observed from Table 3, FMDV virus from neighbouring countries have a high sequence identity confirming the possible exchange of FMDV strains among countries within the Region. Table 3: summary of the genotyping results of FMDV positive samples collected in different areas of Thailand between November 2015 and March 2016.

Iran 1, 2 Five, two and two field isolates, respectively belonging to FMDV serotypes A, Asia 1 and O, collected during 2015 were subjected to VMSD assays for which the following results were obtained:
• For field isolates A/IRN/5 and 10/2015, genotyped as A/ASIA/IRAN-05FAR-09 & SIS-10, and field isolates A/IRN/8, 10 and 25/2015, genotyped as A/ASIA/G-VII, vaccines strains A/IRAN 2005 and A22 IRQ were identified as likely to confer protection for only A/ASIA/IRAN-05FAR-09, SIS-10. Other vaccine strains, A MAY 97, A SAU 95(1) and A TUR 20/06 were unlikely to confer protection to all the field strains included in the test,
• For field isolates ASIA1/IRN/2, 20/2015, genotyped as ASIA 1/ ASIA/Sindh-08, vaccine strain ASIA 1 Shamir was unlikely to confer protection,
• For field isolates, O/IRN/4 and 6/2015, genotyped as O/ME-SA/Pan Asia -2FAR-10, BAL-09, vaccines strains O 3039 and 0/TUR/5/2009 were defined as likely to confer protection but not O Manisa.
Relative to the FMD outbreak of September 2015 in cattle in Qom, Iran, caused by A/ASIA/G-VII, this was reported as resolved as from the 28th May 2016. Source of outbreak was due to illegal movement of infected animals or fomites. Control measures adopted for the containment of the outbreak are movement control inside the country, vaccination of 28,800 cattle in Qom, in response to the outbreak, employing the Merial/Razi polyvalent vaccine, disinfection and quarantine. Kuwait 2
The FMD event of January 2016, during which 12 outbreaks occurred involving cattle farms in Al Jahrah, Kuwait, caused by A/ASIA/G-VII was reported as resolved as from the 28th May 2016. The origin of the outbreak remains unknown. A multivalent vaccine containing O, A, Asia 1 and SAT 2 serotypes was used for the immunization of 26,810 cattle in Al Jahrah. Other control measures adopted were: movement control inside the country, disinfection, quarantine, surveillance outside and within containment and/or protection zone, control of wildlife reservoirs, zoning with no treatment of the affected animals. Pakistan 6 Within the Progressive Control of Foot and Mouth Disease Project (TCP/PAK/3503) 143 FMD outbreaks were reported during May 2016 caused by FMDV serotypes A, Asia 1 and O, as also some outbreaks including multiple serotypes. Details on number, serotypes involved and location are reported in Table 8 and Map 6. Ring vaccination and cost sharing basis that involves a contribution from the farmers, were carried out in the country during May 2016 and a summary of the interventions is reported in Table9.

Further to the above, field isolates belonging to FMDV serotypes A, and O collected during 2015 were subjected by the WRLFMD to VMSD assays with the detection of vaccines strains capable of conferring protection. For field isolates A/PAK/31/2015 and 53/2015 respectively belonging to A/ASIA/IRAN-05FAR-09 and A/ASIA/IRAN-05FAR-11 sublineages, VMSD assays identified vaccine strain A/TUR/20/06 as likely to confer protection for the former and A22 IRQ for the latter field isolate. For all field isolates, O/PAK, 22, 30, 49/2015, respectively belonging to sublineages 0/ME-SA/Pak-98 and 0/Me-SA/PanAsia-2BAL-09 and 0/Me-SA/PanAsia ANT-10, vaccine strains identified as likely to confer protection were represented by 0 3039, 0 Manisa and 0 Tur 5/09. Saudi Arabia 1 The WRLFMD detected FMDV serotype A in a bovine epithelial sample, while FMDV genome was detected without serotyping in the two probang samples collected from the same species. The samples were respectively collected during March and April 2016. Turkey 1, 7 Of the two vaccine viruses, O-Tur-07 and O-Tur-14, produced by Sap Institute Vaccines, Ankara Turkey, that were tested in VMSD assays, only the former produced homologous virus neutralization values that are suggestive of protection for representative field viruses O/IRN/6/2015, O/PAK/30/2015 and 0/KUW/4/2016 belonging to sublineage 0/ME-SA/PanAsia-2QOM-15. The VP1 sequence of a sample collected during 2016 in Turkey, for which species and location of collection are not reported, was genotyped as O/ME-SA PanAsiaQOM-15 with the most closely related field virus not pertaining to the country represented by O/KUW/1/2016 with a sequence identity (seq id) of 99.69%. United Arab Emirates 1 FMDV O/ME-SA/Ind-2001d was detected in all of the five bovine fluid/mouth lesion samples collected in Sharjah, UAE on the 16th February 2016. The most closely related field virus to these field isolates not pertaining to the country was represented by O/NEP/17/2015 with a seq id% between 99.06 - 99.22, suggestive of a viral pathway between the two countries, while the most closely related reference virus was represented by O/BHU/3/2009 (KM921814) with a seq id % between 93.90 - 94.05.

A high seroprevalence (50%) was found in samples collected from cattle as 30, out of 60 sera, resulted positive in ELISA for the detection of antibodies against the FDV non-structural proteins (NSP). On-going collaborative activities by LANAVET are with the Ohio State University and Plum Island Laboratory, USA. Ghana 12 No reports of FMD outbreaks are available for May 2016 as also no FMD related activities were carried out by ACCRA Veterinary Laboratory, Ghana. Nigeria13 The National Veterinary Research Institute, Vom, Plateau State, Nigeria conducted a serosurvey including samples from wildlife species, collected in collaboration with nomadic farmers, for the detection of antibodies against the NSP of FMDV with the following results: seroprevalences for wildlife and cattle were relatively higher than those found in pigs: of the 45 wildlife sera, 23 were positive (51.11%); of the 270 bovine sera, 192 were positive (71.11); of the 360 swine sera, 41 (11.39%) were positive. The laboratory also provides expert advice to the local farmers and has an OIE twining programme still on-going with CODA CERVA, Belgium.

Angola 2 A FMD outbreak for which serotyping is still pending occurred on the 29th of April 2016 in clinically affected cattle in Cunado Cubango, Angola, which is on the border of Namibia (Map 10). The outbreak occurred in a very remote area in a herd of 34 unvaccinated animals located approximately at 100 km to the East of the previous event of FMD. Veterinary staff confirmed outbreak based on twelve clinical cases. The present event is not related to previous outbreaks. Origin of outbreak is unknown and the containment measures adopted are the following: movement control inside the country, disinfection, quarantine, and official destruction of animal products, carcasses, by-products and waste, surveillance within containment and/or protection zone, modified stamping out and zoning. No treatment was administered to affected animals while vaccination in response to the outbreak was carried out in 3,510 cattle. A summary of the animals involved in the outbreak is reported in Table 13 and location of outbreak is represented in Map 10.

Mozambique 2 Due to a current intensive drought in the region, there is the concentration of a high number of stock in a few water bodies with an increase in the movement of FMD susceptible animals and in interactions with wildlife species. A total of 426 new FMD cases were detected (152 in Massingir district of Gaza Province and 274 in Magude district of Maputo province) since the first notification of this event, in May 2015 up to the end of September 2015. Vaccination was administered to 113,870 cattle employing a vaccine containing antigens of FMDV serotypes SAT 1 and 2. No new clinical case of FMD was reported between February and May 2016. RSA 15 The ARC-Onderstepoort Veterinary Institute, Republic of South Africa examined 3,453 samples using liquid-phase blocking ELISA for the detection of FMDV serotypes SAT 1, SAT 2 and SAT 3 and 20 samples using NSP ELISA. The laboratory is carrying out research studies and collaborations with international organisations. Zimbabwe 2 Relative to the series of FMD outbreaks that started in April 2014 due to FMDV serotype SAT2, introduced by illegal movement of animals, contact with infected animals at grazing and watering and contact with wild animals no new case was reported for the last two months. All previously infected districts are still under quarantine and twenty-four hours roadblocks with veterinary and police officers were put in place in the affected districts to control animal movements as well as raise awareness for foot-and-mouth disease. Control measures still in act are movement control inside the country, disinfection, quarantine, surveillance within and outside containment and/or protection zones, control of wildlife reservoirs and zoning. Vaccination was carried out in Manicaland in 50,000 cattle in the wildlife-livestock area and in Masvingo a booster vaccination was provided

G. POOL 7 – South America
South America 2, 16 The OIE FMD status of the countries in South America as reported in May 2015 is presented in Map 12. Most South American countries are FMD free with vaccination (Uruguay) or without vaccination (Chile, Guyana) or with free zones with vaccination (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Peru and continental Ecuador) or without vaccination (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Peru) as described by the OIE maps (see: http://www.oie.int/en/animal-health-in-the-world/official-disease-status/fmd/en-fmd-carte/). Small areas of the continent may still be considered as endemic but clinical cases are rare (Map 12). The FMD history between 2012 –2014 is reported in Table 15.

IV. OTHER NEWS: 1The 1st WRLFMD Quarterly Report for the period January– March 2016 published the following table (Table 16) that contains a list of FMDV strains for antigen banks of FMD-Free countries. The discussion of this table is within the report. The WRLFMD is at present working to adopt a risk-based approach for identifying FMDV lineages and relate these to priority vaccines for use in Europe and other FMD-free settings. Table 16 Recommendations by the WRLFMD® on FMD virus strains to be included in FMDV antigen banks (for FMD -free countries) – March 2016. Note: Virus strains are NOT listed in order of importance
